How Wayne is building a better working world

“One of the most rewarding experiences of my career was spending four months studying the business models of some of the world’s leading entrepreneurial Safe Water Enterprises (SWEs).

I got to apply my strategy skillset to analyzing their business model dynamics, understanding how they might achieve greater scale and demonstrating their potential to accelerate progress toward the Sustainable Development Goal of equitable access to safe drinking water for all by 2030.

The SWEs I studied were already changing lives for more than 15 million low-income people across India, Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. By translating insights into a ground-breaking report with Unilever, we hope to catalyze greater investment in the sector and help  those SWEs – and others like them – to bring safe, affordable drinking water within reach of hundreds of millions more.”
